Explain how the forebrain, midbrain,hindbrain, and the sensory structures with which each brain division isconcerned to have developed to meet sensory requirements for amphibianlife on land.
In many lizards, and all snakes, the tympanum is absent and the columella transmits vibrations directly from the quadrate to the ear. Explain how this might be adapted to a burrowing lifestyle.
Locate the sense organs capsules of the skulls of shark, pigeon, and cat. Justify their location.
